Chapter 231: The dog jumps over the wall
After Xiang Yu and Yang Su received the order, they immediately returned to the camp to reorganize the army, and took all the soldiers of the Eighth Army to change horses, and began to advance in the direction of Linfen County, pursuing Scipio's defeated army.
Scipio led the few remnants of his defeated army on the fled, and every once in a while he had to look behind him to see if there were any pursuers. At noon, a panicked and embarrassed Scipio finally fled into Linfen County. With the city as a reluctance, he finally didn't have to be so afraid.
But as soon as he counted the number of people, he realized that there were only more than 5,000 orc warriors left who escaped with him. More than 50,000 troops marched aggressively against the Qin army, but after only a few hours, more than 5,000 people were left to be beaten.
He thought that one day, Scipio would also lose the battle, but what he did not expect was that the defeat would come so quickly, so painfully, so painfully that he could not accept it.
Look at the orc soldiers who followed behind them, how could they have the appearance of being brave and good at fighting in the past, how are they different from the remnants of the Celestial Star Empire that were defeated by them in the past.
When the army entered the city, the first thing they did was to look for food. After the battle, the orcs were already extremely hungry, but at this time, Scipio suddenly thought that the grain and grass in Linfen County were either looted by the Qin army, or he was requisitioned to the front line. Now most of the grain and grass left in the city are in the hands of the people, and in their hands there is almost nothing.
On the one hand, the lives of his soldiers, and on the other hand, the lives of the people in the city, Scipio could not control much in a hurry. Anyway, the people of Linfen are not the people of their orcs, and he doesn't care about the life or death of the people of the human race.
Scipio gave an order, and the soldiers who had liberated their nature rushed to the homes of the people of Linfen County and looted the grain. Throughout Linfen County, the sounds of wailing and begging for mercy instantly rang out, and the people begged the orcs not to snatch away their last winter food. But the beast people don't care so much, and if there is any obstacle, they are unceremoniously and solve it with one sword. His own life is almost gone, how can he care about these people who wag their tails and beg for mercy.
Only then did the people of Linfen see clearly, it turned out that the orcs' kind attitude towards them during this period of time was fake, and they were still so ferocious and brutal as before. They are so blind that they would trust those inhuman orcs.
Outside the city, the thunderous sound of horses' hooves sounded, and when they heard this sound, the orcs who were robbing Zhenghuan had to stop their movements and run to the city wall.
I saw that thousands of horses were galloping outside the city, and the cavalry of the Qin army was encircling Linfen County. In the army, a banner with the word "item" is clearly visible. The orcs all swallowed a mouthful of saliva, it was him, it was him, the devil. Whether it is a cavalry battle during the day or a night attack at night, because of his existence, because of his courage and invincibility, they will be defeated so badly. Now, the damned devil still doesn't let them go, and the devil is leading the cavalry to hunt them down.
"General, what should I do?" The soldiers had no master, so they had to ask Scipio.
Scipio panicked, what to do, how did he know what to do. The soldiers under his command have no will to fight, and when they encounter the cavalry of the Qin army with high morale, they will definitely die if they are defeated with more than 5,000 remnants!
"What to do, how do I know what to do? It's nothing more than death! Scipio roared.
"General, there is actually another way!" Beside Scipio, an orc general pointed to the people under the city and said, "Those people are the best weight we can get out of the city." ”
"You mean to use those people as hostages, and let the Qin army take the initiative to get out of the way." After thinking for a moment, Scipio nodded solemnly, this is the case, and he can only be a dead horse as a live horse doctor. This is not the solution, and it is their last life-saving medicine.
The general grinned excitedly, and led his corporal down the castle tower to capture the people as hostages.
More than 10,000 cavalry stopped at the gate of Linfen County, Xiang Yu held the reins in one hand and a gun in the other, pointed at the city and shouted: "Scipio, I am Xiang Yu, the deputy marshal of the Great Qin Expedition to the Northern Army." Today, he led his troops here for only one purpose, to take the dog's head. If you know each other, you can come out of it, and I can still keep you a whole corpse. If not, the whole army will be wiped out, and there will be no bones left. ”
"Speak wildly!" Scipio glanced at Xiang Yu contemptuously at the city gate
